Gumpert Tornante cars Photos
Gumpert TornanteAltenburg based German supercar maker Gumpert announces the Gumpert Tornante, a second model (besides the Apollo) which will debut at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show.
The Gumpert Tornante is a two-seater touring superleggera powered by a new V8 engine for which performance figures are still kept secret. Unlike their previous street legal Apollo which was more concentrated towards driving dynamics, the Gumpert Tornante is a combination of performance, elegance and comfort.
The Gumpert Tornante will also be more spacious, built using composite body panels on a space frame with carbon fiber monocoque, so we are definitely curious in seing what this Fast Tourer will be all about.
Stay tuned for more details with the Gumpert Tornante at the time of the show.

World premiere of the GUMPERT TORNANTE by TOURING in Geneva
TOURING SUPERLEGGERA was commissioned by GUMPERT to design their upcoming new model, a 2-seater Fast Tourer based on a new central engine chassis and V8-powered driveline. After setting new benchmarks for driving dynamics of street legal cars with the apollo, GUMPERT requested the Milanese designer to add space, elegance and comfort to their typical sheer performance attitude. The result is a blend of very Italian sporty elegance and German high-end engineering.

ALFA ROMEO
ALFA ROMEO makes great cars but the brand has fallen from grace with Irish motorists. Ten years ago the sporty Italian marque sold 2,100 new cars in Ireland but last year the new sales total was down to 124. Now the brand, part of Fiat, is hoping that a social media promotion might rev up interest.
A few months ago, Alfa Romeo, advised by Hunter PR, launched an online competition that offered eight people the chance to drive its Giulietta for one year, tax and insurance included. From a shortlist of 40, the eight winners were selected on the basis of having the most Facebook “likes” for their entries.
Presumably the idea here is that if one of the winners has, say, 1,600 fans of their entry, then those fans will check back onto the winner’s Facebook page to see how they’re getting on with their free car.
The eight winners will write a regular blog of their driving experience, with the promise from Alfa Romeo that the writer of the best blog gets to keep the car. The blogs are collated at a contest website called realpeople.ie.
As you might expect, all the bloggers love their Giulietta. Here’s Alan Ludden: “I tested
the car on some of Kerry’s back roads and it handles like a dream. It is very responsive when navigating uneven roads and tight corners.”
In his first posting, test driver Jonathan Travers gushed: “It is a pleasure to drive and I can already see the benefit of the improved fuel consumption figures over my own car.”
Guinea pig Frank Kelly is of a more poetic bent. “So is your life now full of fun?/ More vibrant, filled with flair?/ And when you dream of blue skies and sun/ Does your Giulietta take you there?”
Hold on there.
If the Giulietta is such a delight, how come Skoda outsells Alfa Romeo in Ireland by a factor of 40 to one? In a very rare negative observation, Alan McNamee writes “she’s a little too heavy to hold”, before adding that “everybody has been impressed by her beauty and poise”.
Robert O’Brien’s blog may have pulled ahead in Alfa’s estimation after he noted that “the distances seem shorter due to the comfortable seats and smooth driving and the economy is excellent”.
Not far behind is Therese Coveney. “Been a great week with the fancy new wheels, the guys next door thought we won the Lotto. Our sparkling new Alfa has given our old beloved beamer the heave ho. How fickle one can be when intoxicated by an Alfa Romeo!”
Alfa could be on to a winner if the whole country started reading all this guff. Chances are though that the biggest readership those bloggers will ever get will be via the quotes used in this column.
“Kimberly, Mikado and Coconut Cream, someone you love, would love some, Mum” was a catchy little jingle which belonged to simpler times.
But it seems that Maureen Potter and glove puppets just won’t cut it these days. So Jacob Fruitfield’s new TV commercials feature three young models cavorting in a fantasy garden. The puppets have been given the boot and the reworked jingle sees the word “Mum” replaced with “fun” and it’s not hard to see why.
“Come Play With Us” is the theme of the new ad, which shows the girls called Kim, Mika and Coco licking their lips, singing hello boys and legs akimbo in giant tea cups at a Mad Hatter-style tea party.
It is a very grown-up ad which should certainly play well with the dads – but what about the children? Whether it’s age appropriate at all for a biscuit brand is open to question.
Loretta Dignam, marketing and technical director at Jacob Fruitfield says: “The creative idea was to create three personalities for the biscuits. It’s aimed at the Katy Perry generation.”
As well as television ads, Jacobs is supporting the campaign with in-store displays and a mini set of the ad will pop up in shopping centres throughout April. In addition, there’s the obligatory presence on Facebook, the trendy social media platform that is generating a handy new revenue stream for pinched ad agencies.
Says Dignam: “These days you have to talk to consumers in all the different ways that they are consuming media. Digital is just another format for delivering your media message.”
While social media has upsides for brands, it also has downsides. So far reaction to the Jacobs commercials from consumers on Boards.ie and other message boards has been mixed at best.

Loremo Beautifull car
Loremo AG Concept
The concept is refreshingly simple: make an ultra-efficient car that’s light, has exceptionally low drag, and sips diesel with a small engine. This is the Loremo AG, a car that is a combination of innovative technology and back-to-basics thinking. To be shown at the upcoming car show in Geneva, this German creation claims a fuel economy of 157 mpg with no fancy hybrid drive train, fuel cells, or plug in paraphernalia. Weighing less than a thousand pounds, the sporty rear-wheel drive 4-seater is designed to be maximally aerodynamic. The Loremo sports a modest 2-cylinder, 20 hp turbo diesel motor, has a top speed of 100 mph, and does 0-60 in ten seconds. If that sounds like less than elite performance, the anticipated $13,000 price tag should put it in a bit more perspective. The Loremo is due to come onto the European market in 2009

Mini Cooper Nice car
In 1959, a groundbreaking new subcompact coupe emerged in England using a transverse-mounted engine and an efficient, boxy front-wheel-drive layout. It achieved truly mini-compact exterior dimensions along with a surprising amount of usable space inside. Because it was affordable, stylish, fun to drive and easy to park anywhere, the British Mini and Mini Cooper quickly achieved icon status around the world -- including the U.S., where it sold as a brief counter-culture favorite during the 1960s.
After a lengthy break, the Mini Cooper returned to our shores in 2002 under BMW's direction to resurrect the legend. As before, the current Mini Cooper hatchback coupe and convertible appeal to a diverse audience. Its high style is embraced by pop stars and celebrities, while an affordable bottom line enables middle-class commoners to easily scrape together the entry-level price of admission. It's a uniquely sporting blend of classic British mini-car heritage and charm combined with precise German engineering and construction underneath.

Fiat carsFiat S.p.A., an acronym for Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino[3] (English: Italian Automobile Factory of Turin), is an Italian automobile manufacturer, engine manufacturer, financial and industrial group based in Turin in the Piedmont region. Fiat was founded in 1899 by a group of investors including Giovanni Agnelli. Fiat has also manufactured railroad vehicles, tanks and aircraft. As of 2009, Fiat (not including Chrysler) is the world's ninth largest carmaker as well as Italy's largest carmaker.[4]
Fiat-based cars are constructed all around the world, with the largest number produced outside Italy being built in Brazil, where they are best-sellers.It also has factories in Argentina and Poland. Fiat has a long history of licensing its products to other countries. Joint venture operations are found in Italy, France, Turkey, India, Pakistan, China, Serbia and Russia.
Agnelli's grandson Gianni Agnelli was Fiat chairman from 1966 until 1996, and honorary chairman from then until his death on 24 January 2003, while Cesare Romiti served as chairman. After their removal, Paolo Fresco served as chairman and Paolo Cantarella as CEO. Umberto Agnelli then took over as chairman from 2002 to 2004. After Umberto Agnelli's death on 28 May 2004, Luca Cordero di Montezemolo was named chairman, but Agnelli heir John Elkann became vice chairman at age 28 and other family members are on the board. At this point, CEO Giuseppe Morchio immediately offered his resignation. Sergio Marchionne was named to replace him on 1 June 2004.
Audi Q7
The engine was based on the diesel technology from Audi R10 TDI race car, but with larger displacement. The engine was rated at 500 PS (370 kW; 490 hp) and 1,000 N·m (740 lb·ft), making it the most powerful diesel engine, and also the only twelve-cylinder diesel engine, used in any passenger car. It has 0–100 km/h acceleration of 5.5 seconds. The Q7 V12 TDI according to Audi is the best handling Q7 due to a revised suspension, tires and brakes. Audi claims the Q7 V12 TDI can handle a lateral inclination of over .9 g's on a 300 foot skid-pad.[13]
The concept vehicle originally appeared at the 2006 Paris Motor Show.
Originally, Audi announced to build a version for the US market using diesel engines jointly developed with Volkswagen and Mercedes under the label "Bluetec".[14] Audi was later reported to not be bringing the Q7 V12 TDI to the US market.[15]
